These documents provide the policy direction for all community development � activities, and are used throughout the City's community development planning and capital budgeting processes. The Comprehensive Plan identifies the City's key objectives f�r the 1980's, and the Capital Allocation Policy ensures that capital improvement resources are allocated ta those activities deemed essential to the long terr� health and vitality of Saint Paul . The development of both documents involved extensive citizen participation, and residen�s continue to remain active in both the revision of po1icies and allocation of CDBG resources. Both the Saint Pau1 Comprehensive Plan and Capital A1location Policy: 1984-1985 strongly support the �bjectives of the federal Housing and Community Deve7opment Act, i .e. , to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment, and expanding economic opportunities, prin- cipally for persons of 1ow and moderate income. Saint Paul 's CDBG Program also gives maximum feasi6le priority to activities which will benefit low and moderate income families, or aid in the prevent�on or elir�ination of slums or blight. The Saint Paul Comprehensive P1an: Objectives�for the 1980's The Comprehensive Plan is Saint Paul 's officia1 planning document. It helps to � provide a vision of the City's future potential , whi1e guiding its response to current issues and opportuni�ies. The Comprehensive Plan recognizes that Saint Pa.ul is faced with many ��mm�,�nity developr�ent neec�s whi^h surpass its limited amount of resources. Because the City may not have the resources needed to accomplish all of its objectives, attention must be directed to those activities of the most critical nature. The Comprehensive Plan and the city's CDBG objectives focus on objectives essential to the future well�being of the City. The key objectives which affect the CDBG program are: - 1. Housin : To maintain and upgrade the City's existing sound housing stock while seeking to improve deficient housing and generating con- struction of new, affordable housing choices in character with the neighborhoods surrounding them. 2. Energ-y: To achieve greater energy efficiency by maintaining and retro- fitting existing structures, while encouraging energy conservation and innovation. in construction. 3. Infrastructure: To maintain City investments, particularly sewer and water lines, streets, bridges, public buildings, arrd existing parks, through repair and/or replacement as needed. The Comprehensive Plan expands these objectives into issue or area-specific policies and recommendations, many of which pertain directly to community development activities. , . �,. � _ 2 - f��,�� Prior to the appropriation of CDBG funds, all community development programs and projects are reviewed for consistency with the adapted policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The Capital Allocation Policy: 1984-1985 The Capital Allocation Policy was specifically designed to guide Saint Paul 's Unified Capital Improvement Budgeting process and the expenditure of CDBG funds. It sets the general direction for capital expenditures . over a multi-year period. The policies are used to allocate capital resources according to City goals and objectives, and to determine the relative priority of proposed capital projects. The major goals of the Policy are close1y related to the Comprehensive Plan, and form the basis for Saint Paul 's capital improvement expenditures and community development activities: 1. To strengthen the City' s neighborhoods in order to make them better places to live. 2. To consider enerqy use in all the City's activities and to increase energy efficiency whenever possible. 3. To ensure the structural integrity of the City' s physical facilities in order to maintain basic levels of service and prevent potential health and safety hazards. The community development needs of the City are far greater than the available capital resources. The goals of the Capital A1location Policy are, therefore, supplement�d by a number of objectives to be accomplished with block grant funds. These objectives are: a) to assist in the renovation and rehabilitation of the City's "ousing sto�k; to eliminate b7i�hted structures througM spot acquisition; b) to complement public and private housing rehabilitation efforts through: the installation of public improvements such as streets, sewers, and neighborhood facilities; the provision of puvlic services; c) to promote and provide stimulus in economic development activities; d) to assist in neighborhood commercial area revitalization efforts; and e) to encourage and promote energy efficiency. The 1984-85 Capital Allocation Policy is divided into four sections: - Strategy; - Implementation and Development; - Project; and - Budget Policies. ' . ��_�� - 3 - Each policy section provides a different level of direction for the capital improvement budgeting process. The two sections which pertain most directly to the allocation of CDBG funds are described belaw. In combination, the four policy sections represent Saint Paul 's priorities for the use of its block grant and other capital resources. 1. Strateqy Policie,� - The Strategy Policies set general direction for Saint Pau] 's corr�nunity development activities within the framework of goals and principles. They establish the relative proportion of funds that should address each of four areas: City-wide service system " improvements, neighborhood-related improvements, economic development- related improvements; and support system improvements. In addition, the annual proportion of funds allocated to any one area of the City is monitored over time to avoid excessive geographic concentration of improvements and to assure that community develapment needs in all areas are addressed. Lastly, the policies identify priorities for basic service systems, economic development, neighborhood betterment, eriergy efficiency, and housing impravements. 2. Implementation and Development Policies - These policies identify criteria which are important considerations in selecting capital improvements. They are used by participants in the capital improvement budgeting process during the review of project and program proposals. Most of the policies are stated in terms of "prioritie�" or "considerations° reflecting their . use as evaluation criteria. Al1 community development programs and projects are reviewed for consistency with the adopted policies of the Capital Allocation Policy prior ta the appropriation of CDBG funds. Copies of both the Saint Paul Comprehensive Plan and Capital Allocation Policy are available for inspection during normal business hours.
